Did they shit can Wembley for the challenge cup? I remember reading rumours of it but I’m not sure if anything came of it.

By 2020 city's etihad stadium should be upto 62,000 capacity..I'd move there after this deal,old Trafford is a terrible stadium,the size of the ingoals is dangerous and you lose thousands of seats to accommodate the screen...none of that is a issue at the etihad,and it'll sell out ever year!
